If I ever leave you baby Well, you can say I told you so And if I ever hurt you, baby You know I hurt myself as well Is that any way for a man to carry on? Do you think I want my loved one gone? Said, I love you more than you'll ever know More than you'll ever know When I wasn't making very much money You know where my paycheck went I brought it on home to you, baby I never even spent one red cent No Is that any way for a man to carry on? Do you think I want my loved one gone? Said, I love you more than you'll ever know More than you'll ever know I'm not trying to be just any kind of man I'm just trying to be somebody Somebody you can love and trust and understand Listen I know I know I know that I try to be A part of you that no one else can see But I gotta hear you say, I gotta hear you say It's alright I'm only flesh and blood But I can be anything that you demand Well, I can be king of everything Or just a tiny grain of sand Is that anyway for a man to carry on? Do you think that I want my loved one gone? Said, I love you more than you'll ever know Said, I love you
